The Black Keys, St. Vincent are at Sprint Center in December

On the Black Keys’ latest full-length Turn Blue, the Akron, Ohio duo hits a lot of the same notes that first got it attention – heady beats and fuzzy, grungy guitars – but there’s also a few other elements that crop up, with shredding a la the Grateful Dead and frontman Dan Auerbach pushing his voice to a dreamy falsetto. It’s fresh new territory for a band that’s got 13 years under its belt, and you can experience it first-hand on Sunday, December 21, when the Black Keys hit the Sprint Center on its Turn Blue world tour.
St. Vincent is opening the night, so if you didn’t catch her epic show in Lawrence last month, here’s your second chance.
Tickets are on sale Friday, May 16 at 11 a.m. via LiveNation. Details here.
